Abstract

This invention relates to apparatus for performing a treatment on tissue, comprising: a hand piece having a waveguide 5 with an output end for applying radiation from an optical radiation source to the tissue; and a mask coupled to the hand piece, the mask having a spatial pattern to allow passage of radiation to provide separate treatment spots in the tissue.
